Senate Democrats led by Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, including all Democratic members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee's Africa panel, issue a statement pressing Secretary of State Marco Rubio to intervene. They warn the peace deal is unraveling, criticize both sides of the conflict, condemn a suspected Ethiopian military drone strike on a US-funded food aid truck, accuse Tigrayan forces of undermining the interim government and forcibly conscripting civilians, and fault the Trump administration for letting sanctions lapse.
